the chewy (chocolate chip cookies with toffee and buckwheat groats)
- 320 g bread flour
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 sticks butter
- 50 g white sugar
- 248 g dark brown sugar
- 1 egg and 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1.5 tsp vanilla
- 1 12 oz package semisweet or milk chocolate chips
- 1/2 package toffee chips (optional)
- 1 c buckwheat groats (optional, but oh so good)
Melt the butter in a saucepan and allow to cool. Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda in a bowl. Combine the sugar and butter in a stand mixer and beat at a medium speed until whipped up. Add the eggs, vanilla and milk on a slower speed and mix until combined. Use the mixer to mix in the dry ingredients. By hand mix in the extras – chocolate chips, toffee, and groats.
Katrina asked me if the groats made them more healthy. My guess – no. They taste good tho. They’re nutty and crunchy, but not as heavy as walnuts or hazelnuts.
